Comments: For today I decided to use the iKon OSS Dual Comb razor and it actually gave me a very good and easy DFS shave. I forgot how somewhat mild but efficient this razor is. It worked very well for a two day growth. I used the OC side for the whole three pass shave with very little touchup! No complaints on the razor! Soap was very good andd never fails to create a great lather which slick and provides great protection! No irritation at all but I did get one weeper but not a big one! The Gillette Silver Blue blade felt alot better this shave than it did it the last shave with the Wolfman razor. I am still not sure I like the GSB's though but will keep try them seeing I have over 200 of them! It was very good shave today with no issues on any gear or soap used!

Please feel free to leave comments on any items us
ed as I enjoy reading them to see what others say about the gear I am using/trying out! Of course, YMMV!

Thx
